My interest in genealogy started when I was a child. My dad's mom use to tell me that the family history book had been burned in a fire, but she knew we were related to Daniel Boone. I never forgot that, nor have I ever found the connection haha.
Along with doing genealogy I spend a lot of my time doing photo restorations, namely for victims of Sandy through Care for Sandy, and also of family photos that I add to the books I write on our family history.

Tombstone Tuesday - Wild Rose Cemetery

This post is not about the headstone. For one I wasn't prepared. I just happened to be out with the family, had my camera and stopped at this cemetery. I think I am going to have to prepare a little box with cemetery supplies to keep in the van. I have a feeling this will happen more often.

Anyway this is about the family in the back ground. My husband and daughter holding hands while looking at a headstone. My oldest off to the side, and my middle boy looking at the ones under the tree.

About Me

I'm happily married to my wonderful husband of nearly 20 years. We have three beautiful children. My hobbies are genealogy research and quilting. But it doesn't stop there, I also love horseback riding, camping, fishing, gardening, grave yard research, photography and other outdoor activities. Last year my children joined 4H. This year they drug me into it, and now I'm leading the quilting and goat groups. It's a busy but very happy life!

Grave Yard Rabbits

George Scott and Aner (Sackett) Scott

This is one of the oldest photos of my ancestors that I have. Aner Sacket ties my Scott line to the Sackett's that Louis L'Amour used as inpiration in his stories of The Sacketts. I never knew that when I was young and had a profound love for his books and the Sackett's stories. I even began collecting the books before I discovered that I was a discendant of that same family. It's just amazing!
